This report describes the current state-of-the-art in mixing from a practical viewpoint. It begins by offering historical background against which the latest developments are set. It considers both batch and continuous systems, containing details of key developments by equipment manufacturers, with the different concepts discussed in layman's terms. This report also summarises the range of mixing techniques applied in the industry as well as methods for monitoring mixing quality both off- and on-line are also covered. Recent academic research in rubber mixing is briefly considered, providing an indication of possible future practical advances in this field. This review of rubber mixing is supported by an indexed section containing several hundred key references and abstracts selected from the Rapra Abstracts database.An alternative and cheaper system would have a computer controlled manual
weigh station on rails which can be moved manually to the ... screen attached to
the scales, but greater health and safety considerations would be necessary for
operation of the manual system. ... and smaller screw feeders, for those materials
which can be fed using a screw, and this gives faster and more accurate
weighing.
